Recently, not only
large quantities of frozen beef are imported to Vietnam but also live cows are
increasingly imported including non-quota and quota ways.

Imported cows were
recorded at most from the Australian market. In 2012, there are about 3,500
cows, then rise to 70,000 cows in 2013 and 170,000 cows in 2014. This year,
though there has not official figures, but the imported quantities will not
decrease compared to the previous years.

There are so many large
enterprises participating in the slaughtering supply chain and distributing to markets and
commercial centers in provinces throughout the country so they will import a
large amounts.

This is a
not-protected-industry. Raising buffalo and cow in Vietnam is not the main
income of many households, then this fact should not affect too much on the
livelihoods of farmers. Only frozen beef industry will bear the heaviest damage
when Vietnam joining in TPP.

With frozen chicken and
pork, after entering the TPP, the market for imported chicken will have
shifting from Brazil to the US, and pork from Denmark, Spain to the US, Canada
because Vietnam enjoys preferential tax from TPP member countries.

For the consumption of
frozen products, most of the imported cattle and poultry are using in the
collective kitchens, industrial zones… Consumers also use but not a significant
amount. Therefore, the objects that are affected after these products are
massively imported to Vietnam are aquaculture farmers with large-scale
production.
